Apparently I shouldn't have had that second beer while brewing!
I made a brewing mistake and I wonder if there is anything to do to fix it. 18 hours ago I finished my Calavara Chile Stout and pitched the yeast. I neglected to add water to bring the level in the LBK to line 2 before adding the yeast. So I would say I am 4 - 6 cups low on water.
What are my options here? I figure I can:
- leave it as is and have less but stronger beer; or
- add cold water now to level it to line 2; or
- boil up some water and let it cool to say 100 degrees and then add it.
What say you, oh wise brewers?
Thanks!
